“Koki is AWESOME”
We have had excellent guides over the past few years with GoWithGuide! And Koki definitely deserves a 5 star review! His English is great, he's a super fast walker so we covered a lot of ground and he patiently answered all of our questions about the sights in Kyoto and Japan in general. What a great day! Thank you, Koki!!

“Highlight - Tea Ceremony in Entokuin Temple”
We had an amazing experience with Koki who was incredibly accommodating and very easy to communicate with in the lead up to our trip. His suggestions of a tea ceremony in a 500 year old temple was so peaceful and beautiful. He was responsive, professional and made planning effortless, to the point he gave us reminders and also weather predictions. He also organized a lovely yuba lunch that was delicious. Highly recommended!!!
